| The Pinta |
TUESDAY 23 OCTOBER 2007
We had a misty start but will now be heading south for the next 360 miles until we round the tip of Portugal. We need to get the boat to Seville before the bad weather sets in and it was unfortunate that we had to by-pass the beautiful Rias Bajas, but the scenery was superb, particularly as we went past Isla Ons and the Islas Cies. We sailed close to the beach where we had anchored three years ago and noted the contrast between then (hundreds of people in July) and now (totally deserted).
We berthed in the Baiona Yacht Club Marina about 5.30 p.m., passing the replica of the Pinta, which landed in here in 1493 bringing the first news of the New World. After wandering around Baiona, we went to the Parador for an excellent meal.
